OpenMP

[Peter_Simon]

I am attempting to speed up an often-used application at work that

is written in Fortran 90,. via the use of OpenMP directives.

Unfortunately, this program will not compile with IntelFortran(issue

number 232964, first reported on 2/27/2004, targeted to be fixed).

While awaiting a fix, I would like to proceed with CVF 6.6, butthe latter

doesn't support OpenMP. The CVF documentation claims that a

Visual KAP add-on will allow it to support OpenMP, but apparently

the vendor, KAI, has been purchased and absorbed into Intel. I can't

find any current info about KAP. Is it still available for CVF? What is

the status of the KAI tools? Any other suggestions for proceeding?

Thanks,

Peter Simon

Visual KAP was discontinued several years ago. You might want to look at the free "fthreads" package as listed on the CVF Companion Products page.

Thanks, Steve. I checked out the fthreads site, and found it is specific to Windows. Since I'm looking for a solution that works on both Windows and Unix/Linux, I guess I'll have to keep looking.

Looking at the case you entered, it looks as if the compiler fix is to properly diagnose the situation where a symbol is imported from multiple modules.So the fix you are waiting for would simply be to highlight an error in your code. Furthermore, a simple workaround was provided. So I'm not sure what you're really waiting for.
